... that creep deep in the foggy night
frightening the children who sleep tight
invading their dreams
in the dark corner a phantom screams!

and the child, who went for a glass of milk
returns frightful to slumber, forgetting to drink
sleeping, under a mist he can not sense
smiling happily he is still innocent

no regrets, nothing to cloud his mind
this will come later, a story long told by mankind!

no, now it's only the child and it's shadow
drinking a glass of white milk
don't bother...
